Instead of the home baked "inheritance" system, using a gpointer and a
GDestroyNotify function to keep the what effectively is sub type
details, make MetaOutput an abstract derivable type, and make the
implementations inherit it.

This commit introduces, and makes use of, a transactional API used for
setting up KMS state, later to be applied, potentially atomically. From
an API point of view, so is always the case, but in the current
implementation, it still uses legacy drmMode* API to apply the state
non-atomically.
The API consists of various buliding blocks:
* MetaKmsUpdate - a set of configuration changes, the higher level
handle for handing over configuration to the impl backend. It's used to
set mode, assign framebuffers to planes, queue page flips and set
connector properties.
* MetaKmsPlaneAssignment - the assignment of a framebuffer to a plane.
Currently used to map a framebuffer to the primary plane of a CRTC. In
the legacy KMS implementation, the plane assignment is used to derive
the framebuffer used for mode setting and page flipping.
This also means various high level changes:
State, excluding configuring the cursor plane and creating/destroying
DRM framebuffer handles, are applied in the end of a clutter frame, in
one go. From an API point of view, this is done atomically, but as
mentioned, only the non-atomic implementation exists so far.
From MetaRendererNative's point of view, a page flip now initially
always succeeds; the handling of EBUSY errors are done asynchronously in
the MetaKmsImpl backend (still by retrying at refresh rate, but
postponing flip callbacks instead of manipulating the frame clock).
Handling of falling back to mode setting instead of page flipping is
notified after the fact by a more precise page flip feedback API.
EGLStream based page flipping relies on the impl backend not being
atomic, as the page flipping is done in the EGLStream backend (e.g.
nvidia driver). It uses a 'custom' page flip queueing method, keeping
the EGLStream logic inside meta-renderer-native.c.
Page flip handling is moved to meta-kms-impl-device.c from
meta-gpu-kms.c. It goes via an extra idle callback before reaching
meta-renderer-native.c to make sure callbacks are invoked outside of the
impl context.
While dummy power save page flipping is kept in meta-renderer-native.c, the
EBUSY handling is moved to meta-kms-impl-simple.c. Instead of freezing the
frame clock, actual page flip callbacks are postponed until all EBUSY retries
have either succeeded or failed due to some other error than EBUSY. This
effectively inhibits new frames to be drawn, meaning we won't stall waiting on
the file descriptor for pending page flips.

As with CRTC state, variable connector state is now fetched via the
MetaKmsConnector. The existance of a connector state is equivalent of
the connector being connected. MetaOutputKms is changed to fetch
variable connector state via MetaKmsConnector intsead of KMS directly.
The drmModeConnector is still used for constructing the MetaOutputKms to
find properties used for applying configuration.

Represents drmModeConnector; both connected and disconnected. Currently
only provides non-changing meta data. MetaOutputKms is changed to use
MetaKmsConnector to get basic metadata, but variable metadata, those
changing depending on what is connected (e.g. physical dimension, EDID,
etc), are still manually retrieved by MetaOutputKms.

There seems to be a kernel race when one disconnects an external
monitor connected to a DisplayPort via a USB-C adapter. The race
results in a connector being reported as connected, but without any
modes supported.
This had the side effect that we tried to set a preferred mode to
the first listed mode, but as no modes were available, we instead tried
to dereference the first element of a NULL array, causing a
segmentation fault.
Mitigate this by skipping adding output if no supported modes are
advertised and the output doesn't support scaling, while moving the
fallback path for calculating a preferred output mode to after possibly
adding the common modes, to avoid the unvolentary NULL dereference.

In order to eventually support multilpe GPUs with their own connectors,
split out related meta data management (i.e. outputs, CRTCs and CRTC
modes) into a new MetaGpu GObject.
The Xrandr backend always assumes there is always only a single "GPU" as
the GPU is abstracted by the X server; only the native backend (aside
from the test backend) will eventually see more than one GPU.
The Xrandr backend still moves some management to MetaGpuXrandr, in
order to behave more similarly to the KMS counterparts.

Move code dealing with MetaCrtcKms and related functionality to its
own file. Eventually, MetaCrtcKms should become a GObject based on
MetaCrtc, and this commit is in preparation for that.
